GM Debug's PbP: PFS-RPG 03-26 Portal of the Sacred Rune (Inactive)

Game Master DebugAMP

Plan is to start after the holidays.

I signed up for this one with Takkit, right? Give me a day or so to make sure his XP and purchases are correct, as I haven't played with this guy in a pretty long time.

I believe you signed up with an unchained rogue, but if you change your mind before we start, I've got no issue. We won't be starting until after the holidays so take your time. So far I believe we'll be low tier.

If we are trying for low-tier I'll go with Jaysin, this'll get him to 8th. I'll have to check his sheet and header before we start, of course.

PFS # 79644-7
Faction : Sovereign Court
Craft Bows Day Job: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

Yep Takkit is my level 8 unchained rogue. I'll have him ready by the time we start

checkin in:

player name: JAF0
pfs# 52335-1
faction: GL
day job - profession chef, take 10: 10 + 11 = 21

Ah, good to see Jaysin again! I forgot that was one of your characters Rycky.

I have enough of them... probably too many!

Ok, I have a few free characters in this tier:

Nadil al'Gurat: "Classic" Summoner 11 (nothing fancy, some spells and an eidolon)
Miklos Lebeda: Fighter 4/Rogue 4/Aldori Swordlord 1 (melee type and all-round smooth talker)
Viincent: Druid 10 (spellcasting focused, can join melee if needed)
Gromsk: Barbarian 7 (typical barbarian)
Lyan Firesoul: Inquisitor 7 (heavy hitter and decent skills)

Which one do you guys want me to bring?

By classic summoner, do you mean he's just a regular summoner with no "special snowflake" tricks, or do you mean that he hasn't been converted over to unchained yet?

Nadil's a non-unchained Shaitan Binder summoner, though his eidolon isn't as OP as possible (since I'm not much of a power gamer).

Sweeeet. I missed out being able to have an "original" summoner because I was running one in a home game and didn't want one in PFS. Then unchained drops and you can only make unchained ones. While it wasn't a huge nerf to the class, it made my favorite type of eidolon harder to make because of the lessening of evolution points for the eidolon.

Last player is investigator 8 FYI.

Yes, I that would be me. I have an Tengu Investigator 8 ready for the adventure. I could find something else if it would help, but I have a strong focus on skills.

@GM Evil: Yeah, Nadil's an old character. I used an Oread boon way back when to make him.

So to sum up, we have:

Jaysin Deckert , ranged fighter 7
Kleetus Doherni, melee inquisitor 9
Lorelendral Teklet, spellcaster cleric 10
Takkit Shinrou, melee rogue 8
Watts Helm, skill-bot investigator 8

My choice then demtermines the sub-tier:

Nadil or Viincent, tier 10-11 (no adjustment)
Miklos, we get to choose between 7-8 and 10-11
Gromsk or Lyan, tier 7-8

I'm fine with whatever, so what do the rest of you want?

Player name: Greg Rebelo
Character name: Kleetus Doherni
PFS #:43451-2
Day job:Caravan (Intimidate): 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (13) + 22 = 35

I'm not afraid of higher tiers. Takkit can hold his own, even in higher tier, and I have enough Prestige and gold to recover my body if I need to, lol.

Player: Steven Stewart
Character: Takkit Shinrou
PFS #: 174394-12
Faction: Sov Court
Day Job: None

I'm fine with whatever tier-wise

No rush in deciding since we aren't starting until after the holidays, but I will want to review characters sheets a few days before we begin.

I know Jaysin from playing with him once before (as Korai at the time) and Watts from playing and GMing for him many times, but the rest I'll have to give a good read through to make sure I don't screw anything up too badly.

Just keep me alive and I'll fill them with arrows, no matter the tier. Up to you. Play who you want!

Let me know if a .por file works better for you.

I'm fine with either tier, I'm not confident in my abilities to contribute at the 10-11 tier as is though, I would likely do some last minute purchases of scrolls to try to compensate for dubious combat value.

I've decided on this one.

Player: Andreas F
Character: Gromsk
PFS #: 35574-13
Faction: Liberty's Edge
Day Job: None

He's up to date and ready to go.

Player: Joshua Blazej
Character: Watts Helm
PFS #: 2104-11
Faction: Scarab Sages
Day Job: Craft (Alchemy): 1d20 + 24 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 24 + 5 = 34

Looks like I'm about to get a chronicle from Serpent's Ire than I can apply to Jaysin, that'll get him to 8.0 now. I'll update him as soon as I get it.

OK, chronicle received. I'm level 8 now.

I've had some unexpected trouble on my end and got my investigator locked in mid-scenario. I've sorry about that bit. I do have another character in the queue to use though, I would be using my level 8 gunslinger. I do have a few other options, but he is more or less up to date and will be ready for this scenario.

Looks like we may be edging closer to high tier of that changes anyone's mind on character selection.

My math puts us at APL 8 (rounded down), so we should be fine.

Yeah, you are currently 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 10, so APL = 8.33 which rounds to 8. Was just letting you guys know in case anyone really wanted to go high tier. Quick poll, how many of you will be away between Christmas and New Years?

I'll be here.

I will be traveling in the middle of the week there, only for a few days however and I should be available.

I'm available any time.

I lead a sad, desolate life where PFS is my only tether to reality. So I'll be here.

I'm basically available between Christmas and New Years.

I'll be around... not during the day but i'll still be able to post every evening.

Here is the updated character information for the character I will be playing in place of Watts.

Player: Joshua Blazej
Character: Rakenlattle
PFS #: 2104-6
Faction: Grand Lodge

I'm having a major WiFi headache. It should be sorted in a couple of days. Posting will probably be scarse, so bot me if needed please.

I will be away for a few days... will have internet access in the evenings but not sure how reliable it will be... just a forewarning that I might be unable to post... if that happens, feel free to bot me as needed.

Since we're hitting the end of the scenario I'm getting chronicles and reporting handled. If anyone is slow track let me know.

Lore: it's giving me an error that says you've already played this scenario before. Unless that is an errant report, I'll have to make a no-credit chronicle for the one or a GM star replay.

OMG... I DID play this -but it was 3 years ago and I didn't even realize it... so I'll have to play it for no credit... sorry about that... I hope it doesn't cause a problem for the table.

Thank goodness the tracker caught it, or I'd never have known. Swiss cheese memory... sorry for the mistake..

I'm running normal track.

Here is my day job roll

Craft (gunsmithing): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

Let it be known that the following Pathfinders exceeded expectations cleansing the Portal of the Sacred Rune:

Rakenlattle, the dangerously curious
Kleetus Doherni, the durn'd gud serv-ant of Abadar
Takkit 'Longarms' Shinrou
Jaysin Deckart, arrows as sharp as his tongue
Gromsk, who's diving skills were nearly tested

Let it be recorded in the Pathfinder Chronicles

Lore, a chronicle is included with all 0s to use for noting expended resources.

ok... thanks and sorry for the confusion re: duplicating play.... I had fun!

Got it, thanks for another great run!

Thank you everyone. It was a pleasure.

It was a pleasure to play with you all. See you all around!
